Former House postmaster pleads guilty in cash scheme
Former House Postmaster Robert Rota pleaded guilty in federal court to conspiracy and embezzlement, admitting to supplying lawmakers with illegal cash from the post office. He resigned in 1992 and was the highest ranking official to confess in the post office scandal. A grand jury investigated at least two current House members and one former member, including Dan Rostenkowski, but charged none. The plea said Rota enabled unnamed lawmakers to obtain cash by turning in stamps and submitting expense vouchers.
